During the constituency weeks, I also met with seniors' groups who told me that seniors too are struggling to find housing right now. They said homelessness is on the rise among seniors. Young people are also struggling to find housing and buy their first home. In short, several generations are affected.
In the 2026‑27 main estimates, financing for housing has gone up, but assistance for housing needs has gone down. Why did you reduce support that goes directly to those most vulnerable?
My last question is this: What percentage of federal housing investments is actually going to community and non-profit housing versus the private market?
